I’m meant to be out with a group of mum friends this weekend. To be truthful I can’t afford it, we’ve had a tax bill we weren’t expecting. I can’t tell them this at all; does anyone have any excuses you can think of I can use to pull out? I’m crap at this and want to hide under a rock. I feel awful pulling out but I can’t afford it and it’s a split the bill job which means I can’t even monitor it :(
